According to Proverbs, laughter is good medicine. We trust God will use seminars, Bible Studies and sermons to re-energize you at the ECC this year. However, the best thing for what ails you may be a time to laugh.

Tim Jones, Vince Antonnuci, and Dan Smith are masters at leading people to experience the joy side of God. This year’s President’s Luncheon is designed to give everyone a chance to step back from the intensity of the weekend and enjoy the good medicine of laughter.

Tim Jones, a Pittsburgh native, graduated from Johnson Bible College in 1981 where he was voted “most likely to snap.” He’s had located ministries and has also been a free-lance keynote speaker and stand-up comedian. For the past eight years, he’s been one of the preachers at New Life Christian Church (VA) as well as comedy writer, but frankly, no one can remember who hired him. Tim and Lisa have three children. He is currently working on translating all the episodes of “Facts of Life” into Koine Greek.

Vince Antonucci is the founder and lead pastor of Forefront Church, an innovative church for the unchurched in Virginia Beach. Vince’s passion is helping people find their way to God and creatively communicating Biblical truth. He and his wife, Jennifer, have two children.

Dan Smith is a storyteller-preacher and comedy writer who recently helped start a new church in Cleveland, OH called Momentum Christian Church. His comedy has been seen on VH-1, CNN, Yahoo!, Glenn Beck, and other less-cool shows. Dan and his wife, Shannon, have 3 children.
